What do you mean by one broken exhaust valve? Did it drop a valve?

Alot of people have asked about the broken exhaust valve and doubted that it was the only damage. The valve was broke when the previous owner tapped on it (with a Hammer!!!) to break it free. Attached are a pic of the head in question and the valve is sitting on the corner of the head. Also attached are pics of the cylinders/pistons. I can vouch that every cylinder is smooth, every piston is in good shape with no damage, that the motor turns over freely and there are no stuck valves. I will remove the heads for any prospective buyer to inspect the condition of this motor. Any other questions please PM me. Thanks, Jim.

Still available.

Broken valve has been replaced. Price is firm CTJ.
